詞語運用是指把一篇文章的關(guān)鍵詞語挖空,詞序打亂,讓考生根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇正確的詞語填空,以此來進一步考查考生對基礎(chǔ)知識的掌握及運用能力。《義務(wù)教育新課程標準》對詞語運用試題給出了明確的界定,要求初中畢業(yè)生能夠理解和領(lǐng)悟詞語的基本含義以及在特定語境中的意義;能夠了解常用語言形式的基本結(jié)構(gòu)和常用表意功能;能夠根據(jù)不同的閱讀目的運用簡單的閱讀策略獲取信息;掌握單詞、短語、習慣用語和固定搭配的使用等。
近幾年,河南省中考英語保持了應用性、探究性、綜合性和時代性的特征,著重考查了考生的基礎(chǔ)能力、綜合能力和書面表達能力。在詞語運用題方面,更加體現(xiàn)了這種理念。該題所涉及的知識面廣、靈活性高,綜合性也很強,主要考查考生對知識應用的熟練程度,對語言的遷移能力和對語言信息的綜合處理能力,考查了考生的綜合素質(zhì)。文章的題材比較廣泛,有故事、文化習俗、科普小品、體育等。一般考查的范圍包括介詞、動詞、形容詞、連詞、代詞、名詞、數(shù)詞、習慣表達等,既注重語法知識和習慣用語的考查,又加強對篇章結(jié)構(gòu)的理解,同時強調(diào)了寫的成分。

(一)重點考查單詞拼寫、語言基礎(chǔ)知識,在考查詞匯的同時考查讀與寫的能力。這就要求考生首先要把握住短文的主旨大意,答題時除了考慮詞法、句法,還要研究語篇中句子的結(jié)構(gòu)、銜接和連貫等問題。例如:除2010年以外,每年都考查了連詞,使語篇結(jié)構(gòu)和句意得以很好的承接。
(二)以上表格顯示詞語運用主要考查包括名詞、動詞、副詞、連詞、代詞以及介詞等,基本包括所有詞類。文體方面主要是以記敘文為主。2014年河南省中考英語詞語運用試題可能會延續(xù)以前的考查模式,設(shè)空時仍然會以名詞、動詞、形容詞等實詞為主,副詞等其他的虛詞也會有所涉及。
(三)重視句子之中或句子與句子之間的聯(lián)系,側(cè)重所給詞的變化,如名詞、動詞、數(shù)詞、代詞、形容詞等形式上的變化。
(四)試題選材符合考生的書面表達水平,文體偏重記敘文,以故事類的話題為主,短文內(nèi)容貼近學生的學習和生活。詞數(shù)在200左右。短文共設(shè)10個小題,每空一詞,第一句話一般不設(shè)空,試題力求答案的唯一性。
二、考生在詞語運用試題中易犯的錯誤和存在的問題
(一)考生缺乏在具體語境中運用詞匯的能力,很多時候能夠在12個單詞中選對某個空的單詞,但卻沒有根據(jù)需要變形,寫出單詞的正確形式,因此前功盡棄。這個易犯錯誤在動詞方面尤其突出。
(二)對詞法知識的了解、掌握及運用不足。
(三)基礎(chǔ)知識掌握不牢固,出現(xiàn)單詞拼寫錯誤,詞語的基本變化形式混淆等。
三、詞語運用試題的解題方法
(一)跳過空格,通讀短文,了解大意。解題時先跳過空格,通讀整篇短文,了解全篇的內(nèi)容和要旨,先易后難,逐一排除。
(二)復讀短文,確定語義,判斷詞形。把握短文大意后認真復讀短文,利用上下文的語境,結(jié)合所學過的知識,先確定空格處所需詞語的意義,再根據(jù)空格在句子中的位置,判斷其在句中充當?shù)某煞?,從而確定所填詞的詞性,再依據(jù)詞語搭配和語法規(guī)則,判斷所填的詞的正確形式。
(三)利用語境,確定詞形。當確定了一個單詞的詞性后可通過上下文來幫助判斷其形式。如人稱和數(shù)、時態(tài)、語態(tài)、不定式、動詞的ing形式,名詞的數(shù)和所有格,代詞的各種形式及單復數(shù),形容詞、副詞的比較級以及基數(shù)詞、序數(shù)詞的轉(zhuǎn)換形式等。
(四)復讀全文,驗證答案。填完單詞后,不可孤立地逐個檢查,而必須將所有填入的詞代入到文章中,復讀全文,仔細檢查所填詞是否符合文章的情景內(nèi)容,讀起來是否流暢,是否合乎句法,單詞拼寫是否有誤,單詞形式是否正確等,發(fā)現(xiàn)問題要及時更正。
四、對考生平時學習的建議
(一)強化語篇,提高閱讀能力。平時初三學生和老師容易不自覺地偏重語法的學習和教學,學生閱讀練習不是很充足。但是語法的總結(jié)和歸納應該是建立在大量的閱讀基礎(chǔ)之上的,就是各種做題技巧,也是在進行大量閱讀,形成一定語感的情況下才能有效。所以應加大閱讀方面的時間投入,多關(guān)注句子理解、篇章理解和文化理解,久而久之,量變引起質(zhì)變,會站在一個高一點的層面來理解整篇文章,此時再在做題時多注意訓練提高一下做題技巧,會更有效。
(二)基礎(chǔ)知識的掌握要牢固。如:詞匯的拼寫、變化和各種時態(tài)的辨別、用法,這需要在平時的學習中一點一滴的積累。
(三)了解自己。平時容易疲于做題,忽略了反思自己。初三綜合復習時,做過幾套題后要有針對性地分析自己所做過的題,看是在哪道題或是哪部分失分比較多,接下來要有針對性地多訓練。對于詞語運用來說,就是要根據(jù)自己以往所做錯的地方,分析自己哪一方面掌握得不好,舉一反三,在以后做題時特別注意。
(四)對于基礎(chǔ)不太好的學生,如果要攻克詞語運用,可以在增加閱讀量的基礎(chǔ)上先做一些類似于用括號內(nèi)單詞的適當形式填空的專項訓練,這樣的題難度相對小一些,易于把握,然后再做整個短文的詞語運用。由句到篇,逐步訓練能力。
總之,河南省中考英語詞語運用試題就是一道微型的英語能力測試題。它能真實地體現(xiàn)出考生對英語語言知識的綜合運用能力,也能體現(xiàn)出不同層次考生之間的差距。詞語運用試題作為檢測考生各種能力的一種拔高題,日益受到廣大師生的關(guān)注和重視。

(這是一篇科普類文章,主要講了地震的相關(guān)常識。不能把房子建在地震帶上,應該建在結(jié)實的巖石上面,并且要建得結(jié)實一些??茖W家們對今后也許會再發(fā)生的地震表示擔憂。)
1.good。依句型這里需要形容詞,看全文應是“好”。
2.two。文章一開始就說,我們雖然不能阻止地震,但可以采取措施減少地震對城市的破壞程度。如果那樣的話,那么在地球板塊與板塊交界的地方建造房屋肯定不是好主意。
3. may。在這里表示猜測、假設(shè),意思是“可能”。
4. sand?!吧车亍迸c前面的rocks 一詞對應。這句話是說,如果你認為某個地方可能要發(fā)生地震,最好是將房屋建在地質(zhì)比較堅硬的地帶,而不能建在地質(zhì)松的地帶。
5. strong。除地質(zhì)條件外,將房屋建得strong(牢固)些,也是減輕地震災害的一項重要措施。
6. stay。在這里是“站立、矗立”的意思,與前面的 fall down 一詞相對應。
7.afraid。因為舊金山這個城市就建在太平洋板塊與美洲大陸板塊交界的地帶(環(huán)太平洋地震帶),所以說科學家們感到“擔心、害怕”。
8.houses。科學家們感到擔心和害怕,但是那里的人還在那里建造房屋,這正好與前面說的減輕地震災害的方法相反。
9.now。與后面的1906年相對比。
10.if。文章最后小結(jié)提出假設(shè):一旦有一天發(fā)生地震,許多房屋和建筑將被摧毀。

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Im here today to share a good lesson with you. It is a true story about an overseas student 1 in Germany.
After years of hard work, this student graduated with amazing achievements. Everyone thought he was going to get a good2 easily and have a bright future. But to his disappointment, he was not even given the 3 for an interview! The third time he was refused, he couldnt help telephoning the company to ask 4 they didnt want him. The answer was simple. “We dont offer jobs to 5 people in Germany.”
What was wrong, you might wonder? The truth is, shortly after he arrived in Germany, this clever student found that it was 6 to skip buying subway tickets. So in 7 to save money, he often went without a ticket. As a result, he had been caught without a ticket in the subway 8 times.
From this story, we learn that we may get shortterm benefits in dishonest ways, but the truth will 9 out sooner or later and the cost is high. So remember: honesty is the 10 rule.
Thats all for my speech. Thank you!
參考答案與解析
(這是一篇演講稿,通過一個生動的例子告訴大家一個道理:我們可以用不誠實的方式獲取短期的利益,但遲早會真相大白,并且要為此付出高昂的代價。誠實才是上策。)
1. living?,F(xiàn)在分詞作定語,修飾 student。
2. job。前一句說該學生取得了驚人的成績,都認為他能有一份好工作(job)和光明的未來。
3. chance。句意:他甚至沒有被給予面試的機會。
4. why。why引導的賓語從句表示原因。
5. dishonest。由下文知那個學生曾四次被抓逃票,所以是不誠實的。
6. easy。句意:……發(fā)現(xiàn)逃票很容易。句型“It is +adj.+to do sth.”。
7.order。句意:……為了節(jié)省錢,他經(jīng)常逃票。
8. four。four times 意為“四次”。注意用基數(shù)詞。
9. come。the truth will come out意為“將會真相大白”。
10. best。honesty is the best rule意為“誠實才是上策”。注意the后的最高級形式。
